The girl reminded Xue Tianyi that he suddenly remembered that when he was in the Emperor's Square last night, there was indeed a girl carrying a schoolbag who passed by the benches and peeked at him.
After he realized that she was a non-threatening girl, he smiled kindly at her, but he didn't pay attention to this brief scene at all. Unexpectedly, this girl had a good memory and only glanced at him a few times.
I can still remember it to this day.
"This is your home?"
Xue Tianyi has a plain and gentle temperament. When he meets a girl with an enthusiastic and outgoing personality like Ning Xiaofei, he is on the defensive. However, this delicate and shy girl in front of him can make people feel a protective desire.
Tianyi also became more proactive because of this.
"Yes!" The girl was a little curious about Xue Tianyi's appearance here and asked, "What are you doing here?"
"Of course I'm renting a house." Xue Tianyi casually pointed to the words "House for rent" written on the door of the girl's house, "Do you still have a house available for rent?"
"It's a coincidence that you came here. A renter just moved away from our place and vacated a room. But..." the girl bit her lower lip lightly, "I want to ask, what do you do?
Work or school?”
Seeing that Xue Tianyi was startled, the girl was a little embarrassed and explained: "That's it, my mother doesn't want to rent our house to those unscrupulous people for fear that it will cause trouble to the family, so besides
Those who attend classes or go to school will not be rented."
"That's just right, I'm going to school." Xue Tianyi was happy when he heard that there was another house.
"Which school do you go to?" the girl asked casually,
"It should be Yanjing No. 16 Middle School." Although Xue Tianyi knew that Ye Wei had great supernatural powers and would definitely be able to handle his school affairs for him, he did not dare to be too serious before he was sure.
"Are you also in Yanjing No. 16 Middle School?" The girl's eyes lit up, "Are you from the junior high school or the high school?"
"Preparing to be a freshman in high school."
"Me too!" The girl smiled charmingly, with a little excitement on her face.
"That's great!" Xue Tianyi looked at the girl whose eyes were smiling like a pair of crescent moons, and said with a smile: "In the future, the two of us will be alumni, and maybe we will be classmates!"
"yes!"
The two people, who were strangers at first, suddenly became much closer because of their possible "alumni" and "classmate" relationships. The girl was no longer as shy as when they first met, the blush on her face gradually faded, and the pink cheeks
The skin regained its delicate whiteness.
Xue Tianyi looked past the girl, looked into the courtyard, and said, "Little sister, can you let me go in and have a look at your room? If it suits me, I will rent it."
Only then did the girl realize that she was still blocking the door. She stuck out her tongue playfully, turned around, and led Xue Tianyi into her yard.
This courtyard house has three main rooms facing south, which should be occupied by the girl's family. There are four side rooms in the east and west, seven of which seem to have been rented out. The area against the wall in the south of the yard has been opened up into a large area.
In the vegetable field, some common vegetables are grown. A grape trellis is set up high above. The bunches of green or purple grapes are almost ripe. The sunlight shines through the gaps between the branches and leaves on the large and plump grapes.
, exuding an appetizing luster.
"This is the house. Do you think it suits you?" The girl walked to the southernmost house on the west side of the yard and opened the door.
This is a room of more than ten square meters. It is clean inside. Apparently the owner has cleaned it carefully and is waiting for it to be rented out.
“What do you say about rent?”
Xue Tianyi entered the room and took a look. He was still very satisfied. Next, he had to see if the price was right.
"My mother said that most of the people who rent here are poor people and the rent cannot be too high, so we only charge 2,500 yuan a year for each house. In the entire old neighborhood, our house has the cheapest rent.
It's over!" The girl said seriously.
Xue Tianyi nodded, knowing that the girl was telling the truth. When he was looking for a rental house in other places, he asked the landlord about the rent. Most of them were three thousand or more a year, twenty-five hundred yuan.
If so, it is indeed very cheap.
"Little sister, considering that we are about to become alumni or even classmates, can it be cheaper?" Xue Tianyi asked with a smile.
When he came to Yanjing this time, he brought almost all of his family's savings over the years. Apart from the necessary tuition and living expenses, the remaining money was not much, so he thought he could save more on the rent.
"This..."
The girl twisted her fingers together, took a quick peek at the house in the east room on the north side, and whispered: "Then... I'll give you another two hundred yuan cheaper? This is my decision.
, if my mother finds out, she will definitely tell me."
"Then if your mother asks you how much rent you charge, how would you answer?" Seeing the girl's cautious look, Xue Tianyi couldn't help but laugh.
The girl thought for a while and said: "Let me just say... I actually accepted two thousand and five dollars from you, but I accidentally lost two hundred yuan... That's it, the worst I can do is get a few comments from you!"
Xue Tianyi felt a little embarrassed after hearing what she said. He took out the money and counted out two thousand and five thousand and handed it to her. He smiled and said: "You are almost an alumnus. I can't bear to let you be criticized! Okay, two thousand."
Five is two thousand and five, which is actually very cheap! Little sister, this is one year’s rent, count it!”
The girl's face turned red, she took the money and counted it, then handed the key to Xue Tianyi and asked him to continue looking at the room. She turned around and ran to her mother's room, handed the money to her mother, and smiled when she came out.
He said to Xue Tianyi: "Okay, you can move here at any time! By the way, have you bought all the furniture and tableware? If not, there is a big market nearby where you can buy everything.
You can go and have a look."
Xue Tianyi smiled and nodded.
"My aunt also runs a store there. If you don't know how to bargain, I can take you to her store to buy it! My aunt is a good person. She knows that you are my classmate, and she will definitely not bargain with you!" The girl added.
road.
"Then I'm sorry to trouble you." Xue Tianyi didn't like to bargain with others, so after hearing what the girl said, he immediately agreed.
The girl returned to the room and spoke to her mother, then accompanied Xue Tianyi to the big market near the old neighborhood.
The two of them were walking and chatting along the way. Xue Tianyi knew that the girl's name was Lin Xueyi. She was only fifteen years old this year. Her father died of illness when she was ten years old. Her mother was also in poor health and could not do any heavy work. The mother and daughter usually
